| Publisher Description: "Through my eyes" is an anthology of poems written by Michael Powell regarding his views on love, live, death, God, and the experiences of growing up black in America. "Through my eyes" offers the insight and words of a person who has experienced love, hate, loss, pain, happiness, discrimination, depression and joy. The poems are thoughtful, and insightful but gritty and edgy. The descriptiveness of the poems allows the reader to feel the pain and sadness, to smell the fears and depression, to experience the happiness and joy and to understand the anger and conflict. The poems are written with vision, hope and pride with a simplicity, yet unique feel to them. The feeling is real and heartfelt. "Through my eyes" describes the feelings that many readers will relate to and understand and also provide insight to others on the experiences of being a working class black man in America. "Through my eyes" is about the views of a man who has something to say to each and every reader. |
